Why go
Fiz is worth booking for a polished Malaysian dinner in Tanjong Pagar, especially if you want a chef-led meal rather than a casual hawker-style stop. The $$$ price makes it better for a planned dinner than a quick lunch, with a Michelin Plate from 2024 adding a useful trust signal.
About Fiz
Is Fiz worth booking in Singapore? Yes, if the priority is Malaysian cooking in a $$$ setting with confirmed Michelin Plate recognition from 2024. Chef-owner Hafizzul Hashim is the name behind the venue, the available facts support treating Fiz as a planned Singapore meal rather than a low-cost stop.
The schedule is specific: Fiz is closed on Monday and Sunday, opens for dinner from Tuesday to Saturday, also serves lunch from Wednesday to Saturday. Dinner runs 6–10 PM on open nights, while lunch is listed from 12–3 PM on Wednesday through Saturday. If timing matters, check the current booking channel before making plans.
Malaysian cooking in a smart-casual setting
The decision point is the kind of meal you want. Fiz is as a Malaysian restaurant in Singapore at the $$$ level, with a smart-casual dress code and Michelin Plate recognition in 2024. That makes it a better fit for diners who want a considered restaurant booking than for anyone simply looking for the lowest-cost Malaysian meal.
Michelin Plate is a useful trust signal here: it does not mean the same thing as a Michelin star, but it does indicate recognition in the Michelin guide. For a regional comparison, diners interested in Malaysian cuisine can also look at Beta, Congkak (Bukit Bintang), De. Wan 1958 (Taman U Thant), Dewakan, or Eat and Cook.
Book around the opening hours
Lunch is available Wednesday to Saturday from 12–3 PM, while dinner is available Tuesday to Saturday from 6–10 PM. Choose lunch when the schedule is tighter; choose dinner when the meal is the main plan of the evening. For a broader day of eating, build around our full Singapore restaurants guide.
Dress can stay smart-casual. There is no need to overdo it, but the dress code points to a neat, restaurant-ready look. The price tier also supports treating the booking as a considered meal.
If this is part of a wider Singapore trip, keep the booking in context. Fiz is a Malaysian restaurant in Singapore with a $$$ price level, a chef-owner in Hafizzul Hashim, a 2024 Michelin Plate. Other dining in Singapore may suit different budgets, cuisines, or levels of formality.
The verdict: book Fiz if Malaysian cuisine is the point of the meal and the budget allows for a $$$ restaurant. Skip it if the aim is casual, low-cost, or highly flexible dining.

The take
The Take
The Vibe
Fiz occupies a shophouse on Tanjong Pagar Road and leans on the building as much as its menu to make an impression. The space trades the extremes of hawker-style utility and aggressive modernism for a considered middle ground: narrow ground-floor proportions, high ceilings and "pre-war bones" are handled with restraint so the room reads as intentional rather than gimmicky. That architectural confidence informs the dining experience — it feels curated and intimate without the full ceremony of a hotel dining room, the sort of place where design and heritage quietly shape the mood before the food arrives.
Best For
Fiz is best-suited for evening reservations when the neighbourhood’s after-work and CBD crowd spills into Tanjong Pagar. Its mid-to-upper-tier pricing and composed dining room make it a reliable choice for business dinners, special-occasion meals and date nights where atmosphere matters as much as the food. The wider two-lot shophouse layout gives the restaurant spatial variety that keeps larger groups and celebratory parties comfortable while preserving an intimate feel at individual tables.
Ordering Tips
Reservations are recommended: the piece notes a strong reputation (Google 4.9 from 231 reviews) and Michelin Plate recognition in 2024, so service periods are likely busy. Consider the Santapan Warisan tasting menu to sample the kitchen’s point of view, or order signature items such as the Pasar Malam Trio, Forged Caviar Parfait Toast and the Durian Soufflé for dessert. The menu’s Sambal Tumis dishes suggest bold, Malay-inflected flavors — share plates to taste across textures and spice levels at the table. Expect a $$$ price point.

Where to look if Fiz is full
If the budget can stretch and the trip includes Kuala Lumpur, Dewakan is the more ambitious Malaysian splurge. For a same-tier Malaysian comparison outside Singapore, Beta is the tighter cross-shop at $$$.
If price matters more, Congkak (Bukit Bintang) is the practical fallback at $$.
Restaurant context
How Fiz compares for Malaysian dining
Choose Fiz if you are in Singapore and want Malaysian cooking in a polished $$$ setting without pushing into the higher $$$$ tier. Dewakan is the bigger splurge, better for diners who want the more ambitious Malaysian destination meal and are willing to pay more. Eat and Cook sits in the same $$$ band, so the decision comes down to itinerary: Fiz is the easier fit for a Singapore night, while Eat and Cook makes sense if your trip already points toward Kuala Lumpur.
For value, Congkak (Bukit Bintang) is the cheaper Malaysian option at $$ and is the better pick when budget matters more than a chef-led dining frame. De. Wan 1958 (Taman U Thant) and Beta both sit around the $$$ level, making them closer cross-shops for diners comparing Malaysian cooking with a more composed room and higher spend than casual dining.
Booking difficulty favors planning but not panic. Fiz is the practical choice for a Singapore-based dinner, Dewakan is the splurge, Congkak is the value play, Beta or De. Wan 1958 are better if the trip is centered on Kuala Lumpur rather than Singapore.
